“Imagine a World Without Waste” Dr.
John Whitney, CEO, Itronics Inc. Is
Doing Just That

RENO, Nev., Aug. 08, 2018 (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) -- The publication
“bizNEVADA” has produced a cover
story on Itronics Inc. (OTC: ITRO)
and its Founder and CEO Dr. John
Whitney. The theme of the story is:
Most people cannot imagine a world
without waste. However, the concept
of zero waste is nothing new to Dr
Whitney and Itronics. Not only has
it imagined a world without waste,
it is creating it by taking
hazardous toxic waste and creating
environmentally-friendly consumer
products.

The article begins by explaining how
Dr. Whitney saved Nevada from
significant Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) fines because
silver-bearing photographic waste
being dumped into the state’s rivers
is highly toxic to fish. Dr.
Whitney’s Company invented a new
process that extracts silver out of
the photo waste. The silver is sold
and what remains is turned into an
award-winning fertilizer, GOLD’n GRO,
which is sold to large California
agricultural entities.

The “bizNEVADA” article details how
Itronics today changes electronic
waste (e-waste) from used computers
into valuable gold, silver, copper,
tin and palladium. Finally it also
explains how Itronics is working to
develop an efficient and
environmentally attractive process
to change mining waste into useable
products and water.

“We are very pleased by this
accurate, thorough story about our
company and we look forward to our
investors and potential shareholders
having a chance to read it,” said
Dr. Whitney.
